Have you seen them outside of light pollution? I’m not saying they’re draw-by-the-numbers, but there’s a ton of relevant stars that aren’t visible to 75% of the global population from home. You can count the stars of the little dipper to gauge your light pollution. It has 7 stars. If you can’t see at least 6, you’re missing most of the bears
Try psilocybin or similar psychedelic and look again. Those ancestors were tripping and saw those shapes almost flawlessly. I bet their imaginations ran wild.
Constellations don’t look anything like the things people say they look like with some rare exceptions.
Orion? Looks like a guy ok.
The Lizard? Little known one but actually looks like a lizard so ok.
Dippers? Look like big ladles ok.
Oh wait that’s supposed to be a BEAR? With a long tail for no reason? Fuck off Greeks.
THIS ONE IS A CRAB no it isn’t stfu
